For this case we must algebraically rewrite the given expression. So:
x: It is the variable that represents an unknown number
"double a number" is represented as: 
"6 less than double a number" is represented as: 
So, the final expression is:
If we want to rewrite the expression in an equivalent way, we take common factor 2:
Asnwer:
Equivalent expression:
-28/9-(-5 5/9)
-28/9-(50/9)
-28/9-50/9
22/9
= 2 4/9= 2.444444
hope this helps!

In order to write
as a percentage, we must first convert the fraction into a decimal. We can do that simply by dividing.
35 / 20 = 1.75
In order to convert a fraction to a decimal, we must multiply it by 100
1.75 * 100 = 175%
as a percentage is 175%.
Hope that helped =)
X + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 330
4x + 6 = 330
4x = 324, x = 81
Smallest number: 81
Biggest number: 81 + 3 = 84
Sum: 81 + 84 = 165
The answer is 165
